A multi-sensory Kindergarten lesson that transforms counting into a neighborhood adventure. Students develop one-to-one correspondence and number recognition through hands-on sorting, classroom 'neighborhood' exploration, and interactive visual aids.

The final lesson in the sequence focusing on matching sets to numerals and a post-intervention assessment to measure student growth in counting mastery.

A pictorial lesson tackling the challenge of counting objects in scattered configurations using marking strategies to ensure each object is counted once and only once.

A pictorial lesson focusing on counting objects arranged in a structured linear path, helping students maintain their place while counting.

A concrete-focused lesson where students practice touching one object for every number said, using physical manipulatives and high-contrast visuals.

A diagnostic lesson designed to identify specific gaps in one-to-one correspondence and cardinality for numbers 0-10. Includes a teacher-led 1-on-1 assessment tool.

The final review and assessment for the week, where students demonstrate their mastery of counting, ordering, and comparing numbers 1-10 through a series of 'scout challenges'.

An introduction to comparing quantities up to 10, using groups of berries and bears to learn the language of 'more than', 'less than', and 'the same as'.

Students explore the concept of number order and number lines from 1 to 10, helping lost bears find their way back to camp by filling in missing numbers on a forest path.

A lesson focusing on counting from 6 to 10, introducing ten frames to help students visualize quantities and understand the concept of cardinality in a woodland forest setting.

This lesson introduces students to the 'CUBES' strategy and operation-specific keywords to turn complex word problems into solvable equations.

An extension lesson for PreK-1 Special Education students focusing on identifying, building, and counting the attributes of 2-D triangles using manipulatives.

The introductory lesson of the Bear Brigade Math sequence, focusing on mastering counting and one-to-one correspondence for numbers 1-5 using counting bears and nature-themed visuals.

A foundational entry point for students working at a K-1 level. This lesson focuses on teen numbers (11-19) as a 'full container of ten' plus extra units, and reinforces 1-to-1 correspondence and subitizing.

Applying place value knowledge to round 2-digit and 3-digit numbers to the nearest ten and hundred using number lines and visual benchmarks.

Exploring the 10x relationship between ones, tens, and hundreds. Students learn how digits shift and change value as they move across the 3-digit place value chart.

Mastering 3-digit numbers and learning how to compare values using place value logic. Students learn to navigate 'Hundred Heights' using inequality symbols.

Expanding to three-digit numbers, focusing on hundreds and the relationship between standard form, expanded form, and word form. Students 'blue-print' numbers across three places.

An introduction to two-digit numbers using base-ten blocks and the concept of grouping ones into tens. Students learn to build numbers and identify digits in the tens and ones places.

A fun Valentine's Day mystery lesson where students solve riddles and math problems to figure out who sent Sally the Shark a special cookie. The activity culminates in the surprise reveal that the teacher was the secret admirer.

A high-energy introduction to mental math strategies for addition and subtraction within ten. Students will learn to use counting on, counting back, doubles, and making ten to solve problems quickly in their heads.

A Tier 2 intervention lesson focusing on the relational meaning of the equal sign. This lesson targets the common 'operator' misconception and uses balance scales and non-standard equation formats to build conceptual understanding.

A focused small-group intervention lesson where students use balance scales to compare weights, mastering the terms 'heavier', 'lighter', and 'the same'.

A targeted Tier 2 intervention lesson focusing on counting forward from any number within the sequence. Students engage in a 'Blast Off' theme using unifix cubes and scaffolded tasks to master Colorado standard K.CC.A.2.

A targeted Tier 2 intervention lesson focusing on building and drawing 2D shapes using popsicle sticks and clay balls to reinforce side and vertex concepts.

A Tier 2 intervention lesson focusing on comparing 2D and 3D shapes using informal language. Students act as 'Shape Detectives' to identify attributes and sort shapes into Venn diagrams.

A targeted Tier 2 intervention lesson focusing on K.G.B.6, where students use pattern blocks to compose larger shapes through scaffolded construction activities.

A targeted Tier 2 intervention lesson focusing on solving result-unknown addition and subtraction word problems within 10 using visual story mats and counters. Students move through concrete, representational, and abstract stages to build conceptual mastery of Colorado standard K.OA.A.2.

A targeted Tier 2 intervention lesson for Kindergarteners focusing on identifying shapes and using positional vocabulary (above, below, beside, in front of, behind, next to) through hands-on pattern block building and descriptive games.
